Thank you all for such good wishes and lovely posts. It is indeed good to be here again, but I might be a bit slow catching up with the latest.

This seemed to be nothing more than a head cold with a bit of a scratchy throat, no cough to indicate it had quickly, very quickly, gone to my chest. With fluctuating breathing difficulties I tried to book in with GP, but no room that day and receptionist advised me get an ambulance. I felt like a fraud using emergency services, until they admitted me for best part of a week! I hadn't coughed because my chest was too congested

Thanks, Hawkeye, and I hope you and yours are well, and as happy as you could expect in the political circumstances.
At least those are taking attention, which seemed a bit lacking when Dick Cheny was the 'power behind the throne.'
Blessings.
